1. How far back can you trace your family tree?
just to grandparents on my mother's side & great-grand parents on my dad's side, both his mother's & father's sides. one of the things i want to do if i win a multi-millions lotto is pay to have my family tree researched.

2. What is the most interesting (or strange) thing you've heard about one of your relatives?
one of my dad's great-uncles came over from what was the austro-hungarian empire (what became Poland, maybe?), but couldn't get into the U.S. for some reason. so, he went to canada & when some great lake froze over in the winter, walked across it into this country. things were fine for about 3 years, he lived with his sister (dad's grandma) who had a boarding house & worked in a coal mine or something. then one night he got into a bar fight, was arrested, they found out that he was here illegally & sent him back to the austro-hungarian empire.
he became a priest, was sent on a mission to south america & was never heard from again. no one is sure if; 1. he just didn't write to anyone, 2. the locals didn't appreciate being preached at & killed him, 3. he died of a tropical disease, or 4. he gave up the priesthood & just lived a non-religious life.

3. How do you feel about legacy names like John Henry Smith IV or naming children after other relatives?
they're ok.
i wonder how far down the number like does the average person (not royal or rich) go before giving up on the name? the fourth, the fifth?

4. Would you consider yourself and/or your family to be traditional?
i don't follow any "family traditions" if that's what this means.

5. What is one tradition you have passed on to your children and/or plan to pass on to them?
i have no children, nor do i want to. and would have no traditions to pass down if i did.
